[TriLUG] sawfish using 100% CPU [RHL 7.3] ?

[Heath Holcomb]

Frankly, that could be anything. Are you sure your apt-get upgrade all 
your sawfish related stuff to the latest RH 7.3 versions?

One thing that might be worth trying is to back up your .sawfish 
directory and .sawfishrc, remove them, and the log out and back in (or 
restart sawfish). If that fixes it, you can try to figure out what 
setting is causing the problem or use sawfish-ui to reconfigure sawfish 
back the way you want it.

I would be a little sketchy about trusting apt-rpm to upgrade between 
distribution versions, although I use it all the time for other stuff.

Hope this helps,

Heath
